This allows Weston to launch even if there if /dev/dri/card0 does not exist.
This requires a shell script for string processing. It could be written in Rust, but that's not worth it for a temporary workaround.
It also prevents waiting for the card to be ready. Instead, let s6 restart Weston over and over until Weston finally runs.

This made me look into the underlying issue a bit more. What happens if you just remove the udevadm wait? Does everything seem to work okay? My guess would be yes, because from what I can tell, the original problem was probably that Weston was started before the DRM kernel module was loaded. (systemd-logind.service has a dependency on modprobe@drm.service, and we had no such equivalent). Nowadays, DRM is built in to Nixpkgs kernels, so that shouldn't be able to happen any more. I think we should therefore be able to just drop the wait, and its equivalents in img/app and release/checks/wayland.
